How can I play older worlds on newer versions of minecraft?
In the new launcher you can play beta and alpha versions of minecraft. I made a world in alpha 1.2.6 and now I want to take it to beta 1.3.0. But it does not show up in there.
How can I get my world to show up?

There's no need to do this whole world update stuff just download this mod for 1.12.2. I know it says it's a server plugin, but I can 100% guarantee that it will work like any other mod, just download forge for minecraft 1.12.2 and drag this mod into the mod folder, when you're creating a world, select "world type: alpha 1.1.2_01" and then you're done. This mod doesn't generate villages or anything like that, but if you're using mods such as recurrent complex, rouge-like dungeons etc. it will generate those structures. Anyway Here's the link.
